Answer:

22%

Explanation:

If Denver gets 2/19 of the food, then Engle and Fido share the remaining 17/19 of the food.

If Engle and Fido share their food in the ratio of 6:2, then Fido's share is 2/(6+2) = 2/8 = 1/4 of the portion they have.

Fido's share of all the food is then (1/4)(17/19) = 17/76.

As a percentage of the whole, that is ...

17/76 × 100% ≈ 22%
